Excelsior Kampen

This is a recent shot of the Kampen bridge near our home, shooting straight up under one of the pillars. The deviating viewpoint makes the shot interesting - in fact interesting enough to make Flickr Explore, the 500 most interesting shots of the day, my 73d to get that honour. With close to 200 faves and over 13000 views, it has become one of my three most popular shots of all time.

The Blogger

About me:Dutchman, married to a beautiful and highly talented artist from Shanghai. Although my education (PhD chemistry) is very much associated with the left side of the brain, I like to use my right side for my hobbies: music, art, photography.

About this blog:I started this blog in August 2006, just wanting to share what I considered interesting pieces of visual art and music. I suffered from blogging blues for most of 2008, but making a fresh start in October of that year has done wonders for my inspiration.In case you did not notice, most posts end with a small symbol... just click that for the relevant link.All pictures in my blog are hosted on blogger - if some do not show up (the red cross syndrome) it is a blogger hiccup. Right click and selecting "show picture" should do the trick.

About the reconstruction:

End March 2017 I converted thousands of posts to draft, in order to sort out potential copyright issues. Many of these have been restored in the course of the year.
